While most college kids are stuck drinking crappy Macro brews, the students at the University of Illinois are setting the bar for future generations of craft beer geeks.

These bright, young hopheads of Champaign, Illinois don’t waste their precious time on Bud Light and Coors. Heck no! As the next emerging wave of craft enthusiasts, they reach for today’s 4.23 BA-rated Dank Meme Pale Ale from Triptych Brewing!

Nearly impossible to find outside the state, you’d have to stop by the college suburb to sneak a taste of this hip flagship brew.

But instead, we recommend you save the flight (and headache after drinking with undergrads) by snagging a few cans to enjoy at home with friends your own age. Crack open Dank Meme and reminisce about the old days while tasting today’s New School brew.

A sessionable 5% ABV, Dank Meme sips with vibrant notes of fresh, bright oranges and luscious mango from the blend of Azacca, El Dorado and plenty of Citra Hops. Hints of pine whispers through each taste, ending in a crisp, dry finish. Crushing this can leaves you feeling as relaxed as summer break  — Sitting back, beer in hand, sighing “Ahhhhhhh.”

Drinking cans from Triptych is basically supporting the college students of the University of Illinois’s quality beer education. So gather a group of friends, crack open today’s Pale Ale, and hang out with a backyard BBQ or maybe a game of kickball at the park.
